Abstract
The maximum sustainable amplitude, so-called wave breaking limit, of a nonlinear plasma wave in arbitrary mass ratio warm plasmas is obtained in the non-relativistic regime. Using the method of Sagdeev potential a general wave breaking formula is derived by taking into account the dynamics of both the species having finite temperature. It is found, that the maximum amplitude of the plasma wave decreases monotonically with the increase in temperature and mildly increases with increase in mass ratio.
